parkinsons-law skillA

parkinsons-law is agent-read markdown (skill) from the-artificer-of-ciphers-llc/skills-from-the-artificer: Apply Parkinson's Law when discussing project planning, sprint duration, deadline setting, scope creep, or why work seems to expand no matter how much time is allocated. Trigger on phrases like "we always use up all the time we're given", "if we give the team a month they'll take a month", "why does scope keep growing?", "should we set tighter deadlines?", or any discussion about the relationship between available time and how long work takes. Parkinson's Law is a universal phenomenon in project.

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
